Kek Lok Si, Laksa, Ice Kacang
Last Saturday before Shout Out’s birthday bash, Elvie asked if any of us could show her around in Penang. At first i didn’t know who else she called to meet up with her. I was still in bed when Elvie said she was an hour away from Penang. Moments after that, Wendy too decided to tag along, lol.
We waited in front of City Bayview for Elvie before heading straight to Farlim for laksa.
Elvie
Wendy
Elvie gave a miserable 6.5/10 for the laksa. Wendy on the other hand added extra spices on her own, LOL. After that we didn’t know where to go, so we ended up going to Kek Lok Si. It has been so many years since i have gone there and i can’t remember a single thing @_@
One of the main halls and probably the biggest i think. I saw so many people snapping a picture of it so i tagged along. Thankfully it wasn’t pouring when we were there though part of Penang looked as though it was gonna have a heavy down pour.
We came across a pond filled with tortoises and a lot of people were feeding them with vege which was conveniently being sold there.
We saw this tower which we ended up climbing right to the top when we were there 
There was this huge place where the walls around it were all beautifully decorated. It was all over, even the ceiling 
Before reaching the tower, we came across this huge bell and all of us took turns to bang on it. Elvie went first.
Of the three of us, i think i was the most tension-ed. I kept looking left and right if there’s anyone and after i rang the bell, i ran off -_-”
Then it was Wendy’s turn. The picture looked like she was wishing for something while ringing the bell, lol
While my DSLR got hijacked, i used my trusty phone to capture pictures. After all, i did start off taking pictures from my Z800i which made up more than half of my photo gallery. But at the rate i am going around snapping with my DSLR, it should dwarf that amount in no time
We then climbed the tower i mentioned earlier. Flights of stairs just kept on appearing one after another @_@
There weren’t many people up there so we decided to take a group photo
Since the weather was scotching hot, we ended up at Penang Road for a bowl of ice kacang and cendol. And if that wasn’t enough, we then went for Pandan Coconuts before heading home to wash up and rest. Later that night we all went to Shout Out’s Birthday Bash which i will write about in the next entry
